Dead Power Socket? Keep Electrical Load Below Max
NOTE:
This article applies to Japan-built 03-06 Accords, '05-06 Civic Hybrids, '02-6 CR-Vs, and '04-06 Insights. The accessory power socket is made to handle
a maximum electrical load of 120 watts (10 amps). Exceed that limit over a period of time, and the socket could overheat and cause an open circuit.
If you've got a vehicle in your shop with a dead accessory power socket, check for continuity between the center contact and the wire terminal. If you
find an open circuit, remind your service customer to keep the electrical load below 120 watts or the problem could wind up happening again.
